So, I've been listening to the Avenue Q soundtrack for the past hour, and the following song hit kinda close to home. Show of hands for anyone who agrees...


Movie: Avenue Q
Artist: Unknown Artists
Song: I Wish I Could Go Back to College

KATE MONSTER: I wish I could go back to college. Life was so simple back then.

NICKY: What would I give to go back and live in a dorm with a meal plan again!

PRINCETON: I wish I could go back to college. In college you know who you are. You sit in the quad, and think, "Oh my God! I am totally gonna go far!"

ALL: How do I go back to college? I don't know who I am anymore!

PRINCETON: I wanna go back to my room and find a message in dry-erase pen on the door! Ohhh... I wish I could just drop a class...

NICKY: Or get into a play...

KATE MONSTER: Or change my major...

PRINCETON: Or fuck my T.A.

ALL: I need an academic advisor to point the way! We could be... Sitting in the computer lab, 4 A.M. before the final paper is due, Cursing the world 'cause I didn't start sooner, And seeing the rest of the class there, too!

PRINCETON: I wish I could go back to college!

ALL: How do I go back to college?! AHHHH...

PRINCETON: I wish I had taken more pictures.

NICKY: But if I were to go back to college, Think what a loser I'd be- I'd walk through the quad, And think "Oh my God..."

ALL: "These kids are so much younger than me."

  The last thing I'd want to do is relive college. Meal plans and campus drama troupes can't really make up for the absolute hell on-campus bias related incidents and racist Africana professors created in my Cornell experience.
  
  But hey, song lyrics are rarely meant to be taken seriously. :)
